    I am now addicted to the balls

    After getting to know the Luke I am finding that my other guitars just don't feel good. At first I thought my hands wouldn't get used to the smaller neck and they were a bit sore. Turns out I was just playing much more than I was. Now my hands feel stronger than ever. Man these EBMM's a special guitars.

    yep, we are all addicts here! My first ball was a Luke too, i was amazed, sold almost all my other guitars within 12 months. couldnt wait to get more balls! Still cant wait!
    My name is Rob and I'm an AL-coholic!
    The MM90 AL is the most underrated axe on the planet!

    I buy my balls from the number one EBMM dealer in Australia, the all round nice guy and legendary Colin!His website is www.guitarplanet.com.au Give him a call to order your balls!!!!!

    A Luke was my first just about 7 weeks ago and I have already ordered another Ball, just great guitars that are easy to play.

    That's an understatement!!!!!

    I don't think there's ever been anyone who has successfully defected from the EBMM brand!!! Anyone who has tried was in denial and ended up coming back at some point.

    Of course, there is no cure for the addiction ... except to get more Balls

    My first ball was a Trans. Amber Axis, and i haven't looked back since. Those other guitars just don't even compare to my 2 balls.
